I don't have much to add in terms of gameplay, but to call it a demolition would be wrong. Resto was already bordering OP in PvP, this was just something to bring them in line. It fucked ele sure, but resto is still fine.

I not agree sorry... how are u able to say that are op? .. if u take 1 silence u are half dead! .. yeah maybe first was really op (i easily resist alone with a warrior and a pala only wearing water shield) but now i go fast down with only a dps on !... maybe need i change glyphs and talents? i dunno .. could someone suggest me a 5.1 spec + glyph? (no bot/robot/gear optimizer site pls)

ooooh god!! i'm not the only one who sow this! ... omg it's NOT A NERF ... it's a class demolition! This what happened to me too!... btw i've a rogue (rl friend) in 2v2 so he understood my situation and we're trying to play different tacts! ...

I hesitate to offer advice as I rerolled for pvp. So take what I say with a grain of salt.

It's not so much a problem with stuns or silences, it's the stun into a blanket that has a high mortality rate.

There is a greater onus on you to avoid getting stunned in the first place. I found I could play a little sloppy given the tools I had.

As PPN said, your teammates should expect the stun --> silence and be prepared to peel for you. You can try to squeeze a SWG in between the stun and the silence for the 4-piece bonus.

Talents? Nature's Guardian was already attractive. Probably the clear winner now. May make Primal Elementalist more attractive. If you can see the storm coming, Earth Ele gives you a self peel and another defensive CD.

This, and stack resilience wherever you have a yellow gem slot. Personally I have dropped doing 3's, not from shaman not being viable, I just find that the play style stressful. RBGS we are still fine.
